On the Edmonton Oilers …

Jason Gregor: Oilers GM Peter Chiarelli said that they are no longer in on Jason Demers. They are remaining in touch with Eric Gryba, but they have a couple of other things on the go. Could circle back to Gryba.

On the Detroit Red Wings …

Ansar Khan: Red Wings GM Ken Holland said that their roster is pretty much set for next year. They will still be a little under the cap after they re-sign their remaining RFAs.

Nick Cotsonika: Holland said the Wings are “pretty close to being done,” but they still have a logjam at forward and needs on the blueline.

Ansar Khan: If the Red Wings are improve their blueline, it will be through trade. It didn’t sound like Holland has anything on the front burner.

On the Buffalo Sabres …

Mike Harrington: An unnamed goaltender reneged on a deal with the Sabres and GM Tim Murray isn’t happy. Murray said it wasn’t Chad Johnson.

Mike Harrington: Rasmus Ristolainen will get a long term contract according to Sabres GM Tim Murray

On the Minnesota Wild …

Michael Russo: Wild GM Chuck Fletcher on if the Wild are done: “We might find a situation where we have a player very interested in playing for us at a very good cap rate.”

Dave Molinari: Not a stretch that Fletcher may have been referring to Minnesota native Matt Cullen.

Michael Russo: The Wild are definitely interested in bringing Matt Cullen back. A team source did say that it’s “Hard to tell right now” as they are counting money.

Chad Graff: GM Fletcher yesterday: “Today was an opportunity to overpay pretty good players. And I’d like to think we avoided that.”

Lou Korac: David Backes said he spoke with the Wild and thought about going home, but realized they didn’t have much cap space and filled their need for a center with Eric Staal.

On the Ottawa Senators …

Kyle Bukauskas: GM Pierre Dorion said they were close on some players yesterday, but he had to learn to say no.

Bruce Garrioch: The deadline for Mike Hoffman to file for salary arbitration is on Tuesday, but the Senators having the option on Wednesday. The Senators would like to deal a done before arbitration.
